Still on the fence about how much ill really use this, both my bikes have a ton of weather protection andaround here snow and ice is a big factor. Anyone wanna convince me to pull the trigger?
You know you want it. Are there months you put the bike away and not ride? If so having some heated gear might mean not having ot put the bike away. Is there any time you start shivering or having your teeth chatter on the bike? Again, the heated gear will help with that.
Hell, next time you walk past a computer in the trash can pull it and pull the power supply, wire it up with a coax connector or SAE connector and run your gear off that in the garage while you're working in the winter.
Have a nagging wife? I have that setup in the garage on the workbench. Nothing nicer than working with intricate things in a nice quiet garage knowing no one in hell is gonna come bother you because it's 10 degrees out and there is 5ft of snow on the ground.
I once borrowed a truck in the winter with no heat in order to tow a friend's broken down bike. He was cold as heck. I used a cigarette adapter and brought my heated gear with me. He hated me the whole ride home cause I had to open the window it was so nice and toasty. I just smiled.
